41: Chapter 41 Farewell, We Will Meet AgainAfter gaining its freedom, Kurama was able to move its body freely.It stretched comfortably and said to Kushina, "Although I hate the Fourth Hokage, and you're just so-so, Naruto is someone I get along with very well.I watched him grow up.Even without you telling me, I will protect him.I, Kurama, am not some ungrateful tailed beast!"
Upon hearing Kurama's words, Kushina and Minato exchanged a smile.With Kurama's protection, they could finally relax.With Kurama's power, there were practically no beings in the entire ninja world who could threaten Naruto's safety.They could now leave with peace of mind.
Well, not many, but you'll encounter them sooner or later!
"Then we'll leave it to you, Nine-Tails.We trust you completely!"
Minato and Kushina turned around together to look at Naruto, and the family of three shared a final hug.
With a deep sense of reluctance in her eyes, Kushina stroked Naruto's golden hair, which was just like Minato's, and said reluctantly, "Naruto, your mom and dad's chakra are about to run out.Mom wants to say a few last words to you."
"From now on, you must eat well, sleep more, and eat more vegetables so that you can grow taller.Although ramen is delicious, it is not very nutritious, so you should eat less of it."
"Remember the three ninja prohibitions: never touch them, never drink alcohol before you are an adult, and if you encounter a lecherous old man with a full head of white hair, be sure to teach him a lesson and don't let him ruin the atmosphere of Konoha."
"You need to make many friends in the village and have your own ties.As for a girlfriend?Mom trusts your judgment and will definitely find a very beautiful and virtuous girlfriend.It's just a pity that Mom can't be by your side to watch you grow up, can't cook for you, and can't wait for you to come home from school to say 'Welcome home.'"
"I can't bear to see you get married and have children.I have so much to say to you.Time really flies by.I really hope we'll have the chance to meet again in the future!"
As Kushina finished speaking, she could no longer control her emotions, and tears streamed down her face.However, their bodies were gradually becoming transparent, a sign that their chakra was about to run out.
"I forgot about you, Minato.Why don't you say a few words to Naruto too?" Kushina then noticed that Minato seemed to be unable to find a chance to speak.
"Naruto, as your father, what I want to say is the same as what your mother said: Grow up well.I hope you can become a free ninja.We have dedicated most of our lives to the development of Konoha, and we never expected to receive such treatment in the end.If you want freedom, don't worry about the fact that you are our child.Feel free to leave Konoha."
"With the power of the Nine-Tails, there will surely be a place for you in the vast ninja world.Over the years, I've missed so many of your birthdays.In the end, this is the only gift I can leave for you, to make up for all the birthdays I missed before: Happy Birthday!"
Minato transferred his last remaining chakra into Naruto's brain, and Naruto's brain was suddenly flooded with a large amount of memories, including his experience using the Flying Thunder God Technique.
"Use it well; this is also the bond between us, father and son!"
Following in his father's footsteps, this is something Minato has always wanted to do.
Soon, Minato and Kushina's chakra was almost completely dissipated, and their bodies immediately became completely transparent.
"I understand, Mom and Dad.I've remembered everything you said.Thank you for bringing me into this world.You are wonderful parents, and I am very proud to be your child!"
Amidst Naruto's tearful wailing, Minato and Kushina smiled contentedly, their expressions of relief fading away completely.
In the vast sewer, only Naruto and Kurama remained.
Because the seal has been completely broken, Kurama is now able to fully control the consciousness space here.
Seeing Naruto so sad, the surrounding space was warmed like the sun, giving Naruto a slight feeling of warmth in his heart.
Naruto was feeling down because of his parents' passing, and tears were still streaming down his face.
Kurama seemed to transform into a giant fox and said to Naruto, "It's alright, Naruto.Even though you lost your parents, you still have me, right?I'll stay with you from now on.We're best friends!"
As he spoke, he wrapped Naruto in his nine tails, and Naruto felt a sense of relaxation as he felt the gentle sensation emanating from the Kurama tails.
"Thank you, Kurama.But so much has happened today, I might need to be alone for a while.I'll come see you later!"
Naruto suppressed his sadness, smiled gently at Kurama, and then left Kurama's consciousness space.
After Naruto left, Kurama seemed like an empty nester, suddenly appearing much lonelier.He lay on the ground and couldn't help but sigh, "Sigh.Naruto, I hope you can pull yourself together again!"
Returning to his room from the realm of consciousness, Naruto looked around at the simple and unpretentious house and felt that something was missing—a sense of home.
I originally thought that he was just a reincarnation and wouldn't be able to empathize with the loss of loved ones.
However, he underestimated the impact of Naruto's fusion with him, or perhaps he was simply a sentimental person.
In his view, all the characters in the Naruto world are not just characters from comics or anime.When he was reborn into this world, the people here were so vivid and distinct that they could not be treated as ordinary anime characters.
Especially the genuine feelings between Minato and Kushina moved me to some extent.Sometimes, reason controlled my emotions, and I made decisions.A rational thought.
But the body couldn't help but react on its own.
Even though the two of them had just left, Naruto couldn't help but miss them.
Their departing smiles were deeply imprinted in Naruto's mind.He could see that their smiles concealed a deep sense of regret.Now that I have come to this world, I will not let these regrets happen!
Naruto secretly resolved to revive his parents, reunite the family, and let them see him marry, have children, and live a happy life.
However, the ninjutsu that can revive people in the original work has great limitations.You must become stronger in order to perfectly revive your father and mother.
Thinking of this, Naruto couldn't help but list the ninjutsu that could revive people that appeared in the original work.
First and foremost, the most familiar technique to everyone is the Dream Master's Reincarnation Technique.
Impure World Reincarnation Technique: Created by the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, and further developed by Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi.This ninjutsu can summon the soul of a deceased ninja back to the world of the living and revive them in physical form.The resurrected person possesses infinite chakra and immortality, but can be controlled by the caster.
This ninjutsu is incredibly powerful, even among the forbidden techniques invented by the Second Hokage.The resurrected person not only possesses endless chakra but also immortality.Aside from not being able to feel body temperature, they are practically perfect.However, for Naruto, this ninjutsu can be used, but he will never use it to resurrect his parents.If he's going to resurrect them, he wants them to be completely resurrected!
Secondly, there is the art of self-reincarnation.
Self-Reincarnation Technique: A secret ninjutsu developed in the Land of Sand, it uses the caster's entire chakra as a medium to transfer life force to the recipient.If used on a dead person, the caster's chakra will transform the deceased's soul until the caster dies.
In the original story, after Gaara lost his tailed beast, Shukaku, to the Akatsuki, he died in battle.Granny Chiyo used this technique to revive Gaara.
Then there's the Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique, which Naruto considers the most perfect method for reviving the dead.
Outer Path Samsara Rebirth Technique: A forbidden technique of the Six Paths, usable only by those who possess the Rinnegan.Upon use, the light of heaven will emanate around the deceased and revive them.The revived person will have flesh and blood and consciousness, just as they did in life, without needing a living person as a sacrifice.
This is quite powerful, as it's a ninjutsu inherent to the Rinnegan.However, it has many plot holes in the original story.Nagato used this technique to revive many people who died in the battle of Konoha.Obito also used it to revive Madara Uchiha under Black Zetsu's control.But the conditions and costs changed in both instances, so Naruto doesn't know the specifics of this technique.He can study it once he awakens the Rinnegan.
The Elysium Box from the theatrical version.
The Box of Elysium: Appears in the theatrical film "Blood Prison".It can grant the opener one wish, which is to resurrect the dead, but the resurrected person has changed.
There's no need to even think about it; just ignore it.It's pointless.
Next up, Earth Release: Reincarnation Technique.
Earth Release: Reincarnation Technique: Appears in the anime's original storyline.It uses the corpse of the deceased as a medium to completely reconstruct the deceased's body from their previous life using earth, bringing them back to life as the caster's puppet.The resurrected deceased will have the exact same appearance, physical abilities, and chakra levels as they did in life.
This is a weakened version of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and the resurrected person is just a puppet, which is useless.
Earth Release: Ultimate Creation Technique: Soil of the Dead – that name sounds incredibly powerful.
Earth Release: Ultimate Creation Technique: Soil of the Dead: Known as the ultimate resurrection technique of Earth Release, it first prepares soil filled with the aura of corpses, and then resurrects the corpses in the soil to become the puppets of the caster.
This technique has three drawbacks.The first drawback is that the preparation of this soil takes a lot of time (but this can be solved with space-time ninjutsu).
The second drawback is that, besides the fact that the corpses' movement patterns are too monotonous and easy to predict, their bodies are also made of something like earth molecules, so they can be taken down with a single blow.
The third drawback is that the number of corpses that have been in the soil is the same as the number of corpses that can be resurrected, and each resurrected corpse can only be resurrected once.
The assessment is that it sounds impressive, but in reality, it's still inferior to the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
The last one, and perhaps the most difficult: Yin-Yang Escape!
Yin-Yang Release: Those who obtain the power of the Six Paths can use Yin-Yang Release.Yin-Yang Release can create all things.Might Guy was supposed to die after opening the Eight Gates, but Naruto saved him by using Yang Release.
If Yin-Yang Escape is developed to its fullest potential, it is entirely possible to resurrect a person.
Of all these methods, Naruto felt that the most likely and safest method was the Outer Path Samsara Rebirth Technique.
However, this technique requires the Rinnegan, but with Naruto's bloodline, it's not impossible for him to cultivate a pair of Rinnegan on his own!
Dad, Mom, wait for me, I will definitely bring you back to life, and then our family can be reunited!
We will meet again!
Naruto lay in bed thinking for a long time, and finally covered himself with the blanket and fell into a deep sleep.
